You are going to begin by looking at two theorists, Laura Mulvey and Roland Barthes.
Your task is to find and read the two articles on these theorists on Blackboard. They are in Course Materials => Theoretical Evaluation. Then write a blog post on how these theories apply to one of your coursework pieces.
What you should write:
- Who each theorist is, and give an outline of their main theory or book/essay/research (in your own words).
- Give one or two examples (for each theorist) of how their theory does – or doesn’t – relate to one of your coursework projects.
- Lastly state why representation is an important concept in media studies... (if you can pick apart the seams of how a representation has been constructed, what information does it give you about the producers of that text and about the audience for that text?)
